So, Im headed home from northern, MI last night.The fog is stupid thick on the interstate and my eyes were about bulging out of my head after doing the white knuckled cloud bank stare for the last hour.Through the haze, something caught my eye on the roadside, and being in serious need of a break I pulled over (Way Over) and made my way back to investigate.What I found was the scattered contents of two duffle bags.I worked my way along the roadway and picked up every item i could find.Most of which was clothing, but "nice" clothing including winter coats and dress shoes.The clothes looked as though they would belong to a teen age boy and a younger boy ...maybe 8 or 9. I pictured these boys getting ready for school this morning and having all of thier favorite clothes just gone.(My boys would be devestated).Not to mention the cash mom and dad put out for all of this.
So , this morning, Im looking through these items and find a very uncommon last name on one of the little boys articles and with a quick internet search and several phonecalls, Im speaking with a very grateful father.Apparently his rooftop carrier had popped open on thier way home and they had no idea where the items had been lost.
As luck will have it, I will be in his area tomorrow and have arranged to return his boys things then.
As for the uncommon name....I wont say, but dad was a very contraversial player/coach in the NHL.
